Community Service and Volunteering

At King David, tikkun olam – making the world a better place – teaches our students their responsibility to others.

Our parents, students and staff collectively dedicate nearly 10,000 hours of volunteer work each year to Jewish and non-Jewish projects in and around the Vancouver area. Each week, a group of students, staff and parents volunteer in the Downtown Eastside at The Door is Open. Students also organize food drives, deliver sandwiches to the homeless, work with younger at–risk peers at a local elementary school, volunteer at a Boys and Girls Club, participate in We Day Vancouver and respond to a variety of global issues identified throughout the year.

King David gratefully acknowledges the ongoing support of the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver.
